The iucv base layer is initialized during the registration of the first iucv handler. If no handler is registered and the iucv_reboot_event() notifier is called, a missing check can cause a kernel panic in iucv_block_cpu(). To solve this issue, check the IRQ masks invoke iucv_block_cpu() for enabled CPUs only. Signed-off-by:

When the DASD devices are detached from the driver, then the dasd_generic_remove function is called. One of the things this function should do is to remove the DASD specific sysfs attributes, but this is not done in all cases. This is likely to cause an oops when at a later point sysfs stumbles over the stale pointers. In particular this happens when when the modules are unloaded and loaded again. Signed-off-by:

Loading the pci hotplug module when no devices are present will fail but unfortunately some hotplug callbacks stay registered to the pci bus level. Fix this by not letting module loading fail when no pci devices are present and provide proper {de}registration functions for these callbacks.

Use the __get_free_pages wrapper in clp_alloc_block. Also change the allocation to use one page only. This page is used as CLP response block e.g. to list available pci functions. Using one page we can list > 250 pci functions at once and we have code to loop around this CLP command (if not all functions fit into to the CLP block) already in place. Acked-by:

When an attempt to query or modify the grouping state of a channel path fails due to a timeout, we cannot be sure about its state. To get back to a defined state, disband the whole path group and try again while excluding the offending path. Reviewed-by:

Omit known to be broken paths (those set in path_noirq_mask) for the sense/set PGID and nop IO commands. Note: path_noirq_mask will be reset in ccw_device_verify_start (the paths could be healthy again). However if we restart a path verification via verify_start this mask will not be reset (there is no need to let the wait for an interrupt time out again - plus we do not want to loop once we deal with the paths in unknown path group state). Reviewed-by:

Sebastian Ott authored
Do not abort path verification when waiting for an interrupt timed out. Use path_noirq_mask to keep track of the paths used for this (also maintain a path_notoper_mask for debugging purposes). If the timeout happend to be during an operation where we query or alter the state of path groups set the pgid_unknown flag. With this change we allow usage of devices which have such ill-behaved paths (if at least one path is operational). Reviewed-by:

Under LPAR the zfcpdump HSA is a shared resource. Up to now the HSA memory is released when the zcore file is closed. Dump programs that know that they do not need the HSA memory any more (e.g. because they already dumped it) could release it earlier. This would allow other LPARs to use it again. To achieve this a new debugfs file "hsa" is added that can be used to read the HSA size and to release the HSA by writing "0" into the file. Signed-off-by:

When a zfcpdump is triggered and a second dump on the same CEC is already in progress for another LPAR, diagnose 308 returns with an error code until the first dump is finished. Currently the second Linux stops with a disabled wait PSW in that case. This is improved now by by triggering diag 308 in a loop until it works. Signed-off-by:

Given enough debug options some modules can grow large enough that the GOT table gets bigger than 4K. On s390 the modules are compiled with -fpic which limits the GOT to 4K. The end result is a module that is loaded but won't work. Add a sanity check to apply_rela and return with an error if a relocation error is detected for a module. Signed-off-by: -

Convert the synchronous size sense code to an interrupt driven approach. This allows to set the device online even if the terminal is not connected. With the new code views can be registered without a connected terminal, the tty can be opened as soon as the device is online. After the terminal has been connected and the size has been determined the tty is resized to match the device characteristics.. Signed-off-by: -

Add a notifier to create / destroy the device nodes for the tty view and the fullscreen view. Only device nodes for online devices are created and the device names will follow the convention as outlined in Documentation/devices.txt: 3270/tty<x> for the tty nodes, 3270/tub<x> for hte fullscreen nodes and 3270/tub for the fullscreen control node.

E.g. readl is defined like this #define readl(addr) __le32_to_cpu(__raw_readl(addr)) If a there is a readl() call that doesn't check the return value this will cause a compile warning on big endian machines due to the __le32_to_cpu macro magic. E.g. code like this: readl(addr); will generate the following compile warning: warning: value computed is not used [-Wunused-value] With this patch we get rid of dozens of compile warnings on s390.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: "This is primarily to get those r8169 reverts sorted, but other fixes have accumulated meanwhile. 1) Revert two r8169 changes to fix suspend/resume for some users, from Francois Romieu. 2) PCI dma mapping errors in atl1c are not checked for and this cause hard crashes for some users, from Xiong Huang. 3) In 3.8.x we merged the removal of the EXPERIMENTAL dependency for 'dlm' but the same patch for 'sctp' got lost somewhere, resulting in the potential for build errors since there are cross dependencies. From Kees Cook. 4) SCTP's ipv6 socket route validation makes boolean tests incorrectly, fix from Daniel Borkmann. 5) mac80211 does sizeof(ptr) instead of (sizeof(ptr) * nelem), from Cong Ding. 6) arp_rcv() can crash on shared non-linear packets, from Eric Dumazet. 7) Avoid crashes in macvtap by setting ->gso_type consistently in ixgbe, qlcnic, and bnx2x drivers. From Michael S Tsirkin and Alexander Duyck. 8) Trinity fuzzer spots infinite loop in __skb_recv_datagram(), fix from Eric Dumazet. 9) STP protocol frames should use high packet priority, otherwise an overloaded bridge can get stuck. From Stephen Hemminger. 10) The HTB packet scheduler was converted some time ago to store internal timestamps in nanoseconds, but we don't convert back into psched ticks for the user during dumps. Fix from Jiri Pirko. 11) mwl8k channel table doesn't set the .band field properly, resulting in NULL pointer derefs. Fix from Jonas Gorski. 12) mac80211 doesn't accumulate channels properly during a scan so we can downgrade heavily to a much less desirable connection speed.

We walk through the bind address list and try to get the best source address for a given destination. However, currently, we take the 'continue' path of the loop when an entry is invalid (!laddr->valid) *and* the entry state does not equal SCTP_ADDR_SRC (laddr->state != SCTP_ADDR_SRC). Thus, still, invalid entries with SCTP_ADDR_SRC might not 'continue' as well as valid entries with SCTP_ADDR_{NEW, SRC, DEL}, with a possible false baddr and matchlen as a result, causing in worst case dst route to be false or possibly NULL. This test should actually be a '||' instead of '&&'. But lets fix it and make this a bit easier to read by having the condition the same way as similarly done in sctp_v4_get_dst.

An entry in DAT with the hashed position of 0 can cause a NULL pointer dereference when the first entry is checked by batadv_choose_next_candidate. This first candidate automatically has the max value of 0 and the max_orig_node of NULL. Not checking max_orig_node for NULL in batadv_is_orig_node_eligible will lead to a NULL pointer dereference when checking for the lowest address. This problem was added in 785ea114 ("batman-adv: Distributed ARP Table - create DHT helper functions"). Signed-off-by:

A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads /proc/kcore: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000 IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110 [...] Call Trace: [<ffffffff811b8aaa>] read_kcore+0x17a/0x370 [<ffffffff811ad847>] proc_reg_read+0x77/0xc0 [<ffffffff81151687>] vfs_read+0xc7/0x130 [<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0 [<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page. The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be walked resulting in the oops above. This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check. Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now they are running the backup program without accessing /proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it makes sense.
